Swansea City forward Wilfried Bony confident of reaching 20-goal mark

Wilfried Bony insists that he is capable of scoring 20 goals for Swansea City this season.

Wilfried Bony has insisted that he is capable of scoring 20 goals for Swansea City this season.

Despite missing two weeks of the campaign with a hamstring problem, the 25-year-old forward has already found the net 10 times in 21 first-team appearances for the Swans.

When asked if ending the season with 20 goals is a realistic target, he replied: "Why not? I had started scoring goals on a regular basis before my injury and I want to get back to that.

"I'm a striker and I need that. I have a lot to do to get to my best. There are a lot of games but I try to do my best every time in training and games.

"I want to score more goals. I hope I can do that. It is good to be back. I thought the injury would be more serious. But I had the scan and that showed nothing so I was glad about that."

Bony is Swansea's record signing, having arrived at the Liberty Stadium in a £12m move from Vitesse Arnhem in July.
